GOOD KING WENCESLAS Good King Wenceslas looked out, On the Feast of Stephen, When the snow lay round about, Deep, and crisp, and even; Brightly shone the moon that night, Though the frost was cruel, When a poor man came in sight, Gathering winter fuel. "Hither, page, and stand by me, If thou know'st it, telling, Yonder peasant, who is he Where and what his dwelling?" "Sire, he Ivies a good league hence, Underneath the mountain, Right against the forest fence, By Saint Agnes' fountain. In his master's steps he trod, Where the snow lay dinted; Heat was in the very sod Which the Saint had printed. Therefore, Christian men, be sure Wealth or rank possessing, Ye who now will bless the poor, Shall yourselves find blessings. WHILE SHEPHERDS WATCHED THEIR FLOCKS While shepherds watched their flocks by night, All seated on the ground, The angel of the Lord came down And glory shone around. "Fear not," said he, for mighty dread Had seized their troubled mind. "Glad tidings of great joy I bring To you and all mankind. "To you in David's town this day Is born of David's line The Saviour who is Christ, the Lord, And this shall be the sign." ' 'The heav'nly Babe you there shall find To human view displayed, All meanly wrapped in swathing bands, And in a manger laid ". Thus spoke the Seraph and forthwith Appeared a shining throng Of angels praising God, who thus Addressed their joyful song. All glory be to God on high, And to the earth be peace, Good will hence forth from heav'n to men, Begin and never cease. ' Parade Day, Supplement of The Canadian Statesman/Newcastle Independent, Wednesday, November 13,1991 11 Truly He taught us to love one aother; His law is love and His Gospel is Peace. Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother, And in His name all oppression shall cease. Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we; Let all within us praise His holy name! Christ is the Lord! Then ever praise we! His pow'r and glory ever-more proclaim! His pow'r and glory ever-more proclaim ! O O, HOLY NIGHT! the stars are brightly holy night! shining, It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth ! Long lay the world in sin and error pining, Till He appear'd, and the soul felt its worth. A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices, For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn; Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices! O, night divine! O night when Christ was born; O, night divine! O, night, 0 night divine! Led by the light of faith serenely beaming, With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand. So, led by light of a star -- sweetly gleaming, Here came the wise men from the Orient land. The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger, In all our trials born to be our friend; He knows our needs, to our weaknesses no stranger; Behold, your King! Before Him lowly bend! Behold your King, your King, before Him bend! 12.
